Media: Tesla Model Y driving without safety supervision in Austin.

Tesla seems to have at least one car operating in Austin, Texas without safety monitoring equipment. Last week, Tesla's stock price slightly increased after breaking through the previous buying point, as CEO Elon Musk further reinforced his prediction that self-driving autonomous taxis will be mass-produced by the end of the year. On Sunday, a video surfaced showing a Tesla Model Y driving on public roads in Austin without internal safety monitoring equipment or any other passengers. Tesla's director of the autonomous driving department, Ashok Elluswami, seems to have confirmed this, as he posted on social media "And so it begins!" in response to the video.
